A fresh, vibrant and intimate exploration of the world around us, with melodic narratives about life's usual and unusual subjects. Open any page, read it aloud and experience a multi-sensory journey of discovery. The poems are accompanied by original art illustrations by Minerva Bloom. Several talented artists collaborated to help Angela's vision come alive. With words, rhythms and colors, JEWELS uncovers the layers of some things we take for granted, when we divert our attention away from being present. It is that with language and music, JEWELS shines light once again on awareness. You'll feel compelled to go back and read and listen again and again, each time gaining more depth and insight. A CD featuring the musical arrangements and songs is available separately. The melodies range from ethereal, lulling, to echoes of classical, flamenco and folk styles. This is a book that both children and adults can enjoy!
